Think we've upset him.....!
I was only passing on a comment that my Focus ST had, yes, Metallic Orange as well...which is by far my favourite colour, so no offence intended. Good luck with ARDS, very envious..

Re: 20"alloys, handling comments...
What does the test involve? I assume it's a little tougher than the highway code and parallel parking........

Re: 20"alloys, handling comments...
Sure he'll give us some detail, I looked at this a while back. I had the study material and dvd and as I recall it's all about flags! Learn them and your half way there, learning how to drive fast is a totally different matter altogether!
I had a day booked at silverstone to do this but had to cancel, never got rebooked then sold the exige, didn't see the point when I was driving a Q7!!!
